The man was pushed to his death by another passenger who was said to be emotionally unstable. He desperately tried to climb up as a train rushed toward him at high speed. But he was not successful. His last moment of life was caught by photographer R. Umar Abbasi, and the photo became the cover story of the New York Post newspaper the next day. “Doomed,” the headline read. “Pushed on the subway track, this man is about to die.”

The photographer and the New York Post soon received harsh criticism from the public. Most of them questioned why he took the picture instead of trying to save the man.

R. Umar Abbasi explained he was too far away to reach the man, and that he tried to alert the train driver with his camera’s flash. However, most people were still critical. They said that he did a good job as a photographer but failed as a human being.

读写任务：

A man was pushed off the platform and killed by the train in Manhattan, US on December 3. A photographer was busy taking photos instead of saving him, which has caused controversial discussions whether he should have rescued the man first.

I was shocke d at the news and the photo in particular. How could he, a photographer, bear to see a life disappear in front of him?

Before making any comments about the behavior of the photographer involved in this case, we should remind ourselves that we are human beings. We should act like a human with basic humanity before acting as professionals. Let’s put our own loved ones in the shoes of the victim. What would we expect the photographer to do then, reach out for his camera or for our endangered loved ones? Do we still think the photographer should record how our loved one died, instead of giving a helping hand in this live or death situatio n? Beside, I disagree with the interpretation that the photographer was merely trying to be professional at the moment. No, he was not thinking of being professional. The “dollars” made him forget himself as a human being.

If I were the photographer, I would definitely have rescued the poor man first, giving him a hand and pulling him up onto the platform. Then the tragedy would have been avoided. It was a matter of life and death.江苏高考英语试题真题由精品学习网收集整理!!!
